Traccatichthys is a genus of stone loaches from southern China and Vietnam.
There are currently four recognized species in this genus, [1] although some authorities recognise fewer species, considering T, bacmmensis to be a synonym of T. taeniatus: [3] [4]
Oreonectes is a genus of fish in the family Nemacheilidae found in the rivers and cave of Asia. Many of these species are troglobitic.
Protocobitis is a genus of loaches endemic to Guangxi in China and living in caves.
Triplophysa is a genus of fish in the family Nemacheilidae found mainly in and around the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in China. Currently, the genus is a mixed assemblage of species. Some lineages have been identified and treated as subgenera, but as Wikipedia follows Fishbase for fish species all but Hedinichthys have been treated as subgenera in Wikipedia, although Kottelat in his revision of the loaches did recognise them as valid. FishBase, however, includes these in Triplophysa without specifying subgenera and treats the names given by Kottelat as synonyms.
Yunnanilus is a genus of small stone loaches that are endemic to southeastern China, especially Guangxi and Yunnan. They are found in rivers, streams and lakes; some species are restricted to caves.
Schistura prashadi is a species of ray-finned fish, a stone loach, in the genus Schistura. Some authorities place it in the genus Physoschistura It is known from just three localities in the Chindwin River drainage in Manipur, India. It is a benthic species of hill streams, preferring well oxygenated, clear, flowing water.
Oreonectes retrodorsalis is a species of stone loach. This cavefish is found only in Guangxi in China. Some authorities places this species in the genus Yunnanilus rather than Oreonectes. The specific name is a compound of the Latin words retro meaning back or past and dorsalis meaning "the back", referring to the placement of the dorsal fin closer to base of the caudal fin than to the tip of snout.
Yunnanilus analis is a species of ray-finned fish, a stone loach, in the genus Yunnanilus. The type locality is Xingyun Lake in Yunnan, southern China. The specific name analis means "of the anus" and refers to the six branched rays in the anal fin, a unique feature among the species classified under Yunnanilus.
Yunnanilus chui is a species of ray-finned fish, a stone loach, in the genus Yunnanilus. The specific name honours the ichthyologist Chu Xin-Luo. The type locality for this species is Fuxian Lake at Haikou, Hainan in China.
Yunnanilus nanpanjiangensis is a species of ray-finned fish, a stone loach, in the genus Yunnanilus. It is endemic to China and uts type locality is near Agang Town, Luoping County, Yunnan and the specific name refers to the Nanpanjiang River.
Yunnanilus pulcherrimus is a species of ray-finned fish, a stone loach, in the genus Yunnanilus. It is found in the Hongshuihe River, part of the Xijiang River basin in China, with the type locality in Du'an County, Guangxi. The specific name pulcherrimus means most beautiful and is a reference to the “unique” banded color pattern ofthin vertical stripes crossing a wide lateral band, when compared to related species.
Yunnanilus sichuanensis is a species of ray-finned fish, a stone loach, in the genus Yunnanilus. It is endemic to Sichuan in China where the type locality is the Shuyalong Jiang River in the drainage of the Anning River in Mianning County.
Erromyzon is a genus of fish in the family Gastromyzontidae endemic to China and Vietnam.
Homatula is a genus of stone loaches endemic to China.
Vanmanenia is a genus of loaches from China and mainland Southeast Asia.
The Nemacheilidae, or stone loaches, are a family of cypriniform fishes that inhabit stream environments, mostly in Eurasia, with one genus, Afronemacheilus found in Africa. The family includes about 790 species.
Yaoshania pachychilus, the panda loach, is a species of gastromyzontid loach endemic to mountain streams in Jinxiu County, Guangxi in China. This species grows to a length of 5.8 centimetres (2.3 in) SL. This species is monotypic, but it was formerly included in Protomyzon. Juveniles are strikingly coloured in black-and-white, but adults are relatively plain. Y. pachychilus quickly became a popular aquarium fish in the 2010s.
Tarimichthys is a subgenus of stone loach genus Triplophysa native to China which contains two species. Some authorities recognise Tarimichthys as a valid taxon.
Troglonectes is a genus of troglobitic fish in the family Nemacheilidae, native to caves of Asia. Fishbase and other authorities place these species in the genus Oreonectes.
Micronemacheilus zispi is a species of stone loach. It is regarded by some authorities as being of doubtful validity and of being a synonym of Traccatichthys taeniatus, the genus Micronemacheilus is then used for placing Yunnanilus cruciatus in its own monotypic genus.
Yunnanilus yangzonghaiensis is a species of freshwater ray-finned fish, a stone loach, in the genus Yunnanilus. It is endemic to China and its type locality is Yangzong Lake in Yunnan. This species has been placed in the genus Eonemachilus.
